Ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast arising in encapsulated mammary hamartoma ; A case report.

Mammary hamartoma is benign lesion and relatively rare. 17 cases of breast cancer associated with a hamartoma had been previously documented in the literature. We describe herein a case of noninvasive ductal carcinoma of the breast arising in hamartoma in a woman of 60's. The discordance of images of the mass between mammogram and ultrasonogram can lead us to detect the carcinoma within the hamartoma in our case. J. Med. Invest. 67 : 368-371, August, 2020.
